Boxing Day Premier League Betting Tips Part 1

Manchester United face off against Newcastle in the other fixture and Newcastle come into this one on a bad run of form and with a fairly depleted side. United will need to get the outright win here or things are going to go from bad to worse as their lead will have more or less evaporated. They are an ultra-short 1/4, which makes them the biggest favourite of the day. Newcastle are a lengthy 12/1. Look for a big performance from Wayne Rooney, who was subject to some serious criticism in their last match against Swansea. The draw, a nice pick-up for Newcastle, is priced out at 9/2.

Fulham go into their match against Southampton as the odds-on favourites to get the outright result. You’ll find them as low as 17/20 with William Hill while the Southcoasters can be backed at a 7/2 price. Fulham should take this but you reckon it might be a match decided by who actually manages to score first. 

Everton takes on Wigan Athletic and the Toffees will be looking to add to their quality run of recent performances with a score here. They are quite short at 1/2 and Wigan usually tend to start their late-season charge towards safety around this time of year and they might be able to put a few smiles on faces at 11/2 for the outright win. The 23/10 draw looks a reasonable possibility but Wigan have always been a difficult team to back. 

Norwich face off against Chelsea and the Blues are the 8/13 favourites to get the better of the upstart Canaries. Norwich can be backed at 5/1 and that’s probably going to seem pretty enticing to their supporters - who’ve seen them put together some really good results against high-quality teams. This is a team that can put its head down and get the job done - but it’s tough to forget that Chelsea just put 8 past a beleaguered Aston Villa side. 

Speaking of Villa, they are 11/4 for the win against Spurs and that’s looking like a serious mountain to climb in this one. Tottenham trade at 21/20 for the win. The 11/5 draw could be a reasonable possibility but you reckon there might be every chance that Spurs take piles of late money and wind up odds-on before kick-off. 

Stoke take on Liverpool and this one might just be a bit tough for the Reds. Away trips to Stoke don’t always pan out very well for visiting sides and you can expect the usual assortment of tough and physical play from the Potters. They trade at 12/5 while Liverpool can be backed at a 5/4 price for the win.
